dietary carbohydrates having a high
glycemic index or high
glycemic load by complex carbohydrates with lower figures improves the blood glucose control and reduces the hypoglycemic episodes [38].
High levels of
dietary carbohydrates, also known as high

glycemic load, and risk of NIDDM in men.
In applying a predefined algorithm, we identified strong evidence of a causal relationship for protective factors, including intake of vegetables, nuts, and monounsaturated fatty acids and Mediterranean, prudent, and high - quality
dietary patterns, and harmful factors, including intake of trans — fatty acids and foods with a high
glycemic index or
load and a western
dietary pattern.
Fruits and vegetables differ in their
dietary fiber content and their
glycemic load.
Results Strong evidence supports valid associations (4 criteria satisfied) of protective factors, including intake of vegetables, nuts, and «Mediterranean» and high - quality

load.

dietary GI and
glycemic load associate with greater odds of prevalent and incident depression in a large, well - characterized sample of postmenopausal women who were followed longitudinally.
However, any influence that refined carbohydrates has on mood is likely commensurate with the proportion they constitute in the overall diet, so a limitation of these studies is that they examined only specific types of refined foods, as opposed to
dietary GI and
glycemic load in the overall diet.
